Let's See...

Not much going on around here today.

Finished a great book last night -- The Caine Mutiny, by Herman Wouk. Wouk didn't seem to be trying to be deep or innovative or to make a point about anything. It's just a damn good story very well told.

There's a guy in the basement making a mess in order to install some glass block windows. A mess and lots of noise.

Found a killer sushi bar last week while in Sharonville for some work-related training.

Ichiro's gonna do it.

Last night was Ruthie's turn to be in charge of our Tuesday night hang-out time. She elected to have us watch the WKRP in Cincinnati pilot episode from September of 1978. Remember it? Great show. There were people watching with us last night who hadn't been born when it first aired.

Ruthie's about ten minutes from starting to show.

Major League Baseball is going to try D.C. for a third time. Will they call them the Senators again? Will they magically stop sucking just because they're no longer the Expos? (I'm guessing "no" to both questions.)

Dividing the Plunder is playing Sunday night at Leo Coffehouse. They're worth your time.

It's gotten awful quiet downstairs; I'd better go check on him.

Good day, and may the good news be yours.

It's 4:49 here, so I suppose she looks to be about 30 months along now?

Not quite, (though I think she feels like it,) but very sexy.

wilbon had some interesting suggestions for new names for expos...the one that makes the most sense but may not happen is the grays. naming them the grays would endear a lot of people here in pittsburgh to them, since this was their official "home." of course, they played a lot in washington, which is why it makes sense for the expos to take their name.

Thanks for the heads-up, Drew. Wilbon is great. Grays it is.

1. DTP rocks. and i'm biased of it and proud.
2. i heard about montreal moving, and think it's weird. maybe they can "accidentally" clock some people in the head with a 90mph baseball. you think?
3. i had just been born when WKRP aired. but we were never allowed to watch it - or the reruns. trash comedy. ask tasha.
